Podcasts?

[sqbr]

I've been happily listening to Science Show podcasts on Eowyn (my pda) on the way to work, but feel like a bit more variety. So, any recommendations?

Went to Katies Pirate Party, it was totally brilliant. Pictures forthcoming. And yes, another example of the young guard forgoing the traditional medium of email for those new fangled hand delivered invitations sealed with wax. Pfft. These whippersnappers have no respect for tradition.

Also: Graduation pics! Including a few shots of Mesh, who graduated on the same night.

Had to do birthdays today, got myself covered in icecream cake. Was repeatedly put in the situation of being able to eat as much leftover chips etc as I wanted and then throwing the rest away. Must never do birthdays again.

I am so happy lj has notifications now. EDIT: See, and now I will notice when I am periodically friended by random strangers. *waves to dirtyfilthy* (Apologies if you're not actually random, not that I have a problem with random strangers regardless :))

PIPE ORGAN!

Well you should graduate, then they will play the pipe organ for you!

Will you be graduating this March? Or does the question make you laugh darkly as you envision the many years between you and the nebulous freedom of growenupness? :)

Two more years. Hopefully.

(One and a half if I don't continue on a 3/4 load, but that would require never setting foot in UniSFA.)

And then, like, honours and stuff, because my degree is 99% useless unless I do honours and PhD.

Ah. So, ask again when you're a little older than me, huh? :)

What's with doffing your hat before shaking the hand? Congratulations.

It's the rules!

And thanks :)

Coverville is great, thanks!

Eh, I have to maintain at least token levels of randomness just to keep Heisenberg happy, don't I? So there.

You're not that random, you commented after friending me(*) and are recognisably from a community I frequent. It's the total strangers who friend me out of nowhere then unfriend me and vanish into the aether who I wish to keep track of, just to see how many there are :)

(*)Well, I assume so, you musta done it just before I switched notifications on since I only just noticed
